Vaccinia
Way back in the olden days
It happened that some dairy maids
Touched the ailed udders of a cow
And none of them were very pleased
Way back in the olden days
It happened that some dairy maids
Touched the ailed udders of a cow
And none of them were very pleased
To catch from it a skin disease
Which gave them blisters and a furrowed browCowpox was the malady
That put the maidens I'll at ease
A virus passed on from the cow to them
Related to vaccinia
But not so much to tinea
A shame there were no latex gloves back then!
